There was a Sherwood Green D8 which they put a car bomb in on The Bill a few years back.
Bit sad, I know.

The 406 estate was owned by Lucas, but he was a bad egg.
Best use of a 406 (other than Ronin) = the Luc Besson Taxi movies.

Yes the Luc Besson Taxi movies.
Shame he moved to the 407 for Taxi 4.

Never watched Taxi 4, the fact that he'd drive a 407 just seemed a little far fetched to me....sirwiggum wrote:Yes the Luc Besson Taxi movies.

It was a little more Gallic than using a Skoda Octavia though

Ronin's better though
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Re: 406 on Eastenders
ronin is a great movie for car chases, but the engine noises are clearly dubbed, there is no way that the noise coming from the citroen xm was an xm even the v6 doesnt sound like that in ronin it sounds more like a v8, but even so the s8 vs xm chase is fantastic
Re: 406 on Eastenders
Always loved this bit on the taxi films
CO-Pilot - hurry up
Jean Louis schlesser - who's behind me? Vatenan?
Co-Pilot - No, it's a taxi!

Got Taxi 1, 2 and 3, but Taxi 4 seems to cost too much to acquire and is supposedly far inferior
